It's been a chill week. No problems to speak of. A few friends texted asking if I was okay but I think it was they who weren't okay, so I told them jokes and listened to their nervous meandering minds attempting to make sense of change, until they seemed reassured that apocalypse is not real so we could both go on with our day.
My sanctuary is becoming more and more beautiful because of all this time I spend working on it. I could win awards for it, if I cared enough to submit it to competitions. It's really just for me, just the way I like it, with all my very specific preferences of colors and scents and music. My space is sacred to me. I'm very grateful to have such a place to spend so much time in.
I took a peek at facebook today and it was the usual assortment of mental breakdowns, fake news, and very mediocre memes. I like to remind myself now and then that I'm not missing much by not participating. It just doesn't appeal to me. There's nothing to learn there, little opportunity for growth. It seems more of a misery loves company sort of place.
I made mini cherry cheesecakes in a muffin tin. Because apparently all the donuts I made and froze to last a month aren't enough variety for these long days. I love making sweet treats and having them always on hand to go with my coffee.
I've finally discovered lion's mane which is pretty great. Good for the brain. Highly recommend.
